High energy! Kind! Attentive!

Hi there! Mario and Brenda have more than 5 years of professional dog sitting experience and 40+ years of pet care experience between them both. They are avid dog lovers and enjoy every opportunity to meet a new pup. They love living in such a dog-friendly and safe community. They are active people, especially Mario who runs marathons and is willing to out walk/run your dog any day of the week. They like to ensure your dog is comfortable, please share any needs, wants, and advice in your absence so they can cater to your dog the best way possible. Things to bring for dog-boarding: Food and Food bowl/water bowl. A bed, blanket, leash/harness. Favorite bone/toy (to help with de-stressing). Any special treats. Thank You!

Mario was great from the first meet & greet all the way through pick-up. His professionalism, attention to detail, and general helpfulness and hospitality was top-tier. He seemed to have no trouble jumping right in and caring for our Golden Retriever at his home, meticulously asking questions and following care instructions. Mario sent pictures and updates daily to keep us informed. I’d be happy to board with him again.

Mario was great. He took really great care of our anxious and reactive dog and was very communicative. He even made sure Ash felt safe during a scary thunderstorm!

Mario is phenomenal. Friendly and easy to communicate with from the beginning and our pup loved staying with him. Our dog is fickle, but he loved being with Mario over the weekend. Thanks so much!
